Early MS drug test aims to stop brain damage before it starts

NCT ID NCT04466150

Summary

This study is testing whether starting a medication called ocrelizumab very early after MS symptoms first appear can change signs of ongoing inflammation in the fluid around the brain and spinal cord. Researchers will treat 30 newly diagnosed adults and measure specific markers in their spinal fluid over three years. The goal is to see if this early, strong treatment might lead to better long-term health for people with MS.
